Abstract
By means of Riccati transformation technique, we establish some new oscillation criteria for the second-order nonlinear delay dynamic equations
on a time scale \(\mathbb{T}\) , here γ≥1 is a quotient of odd positive integers with p and q real-valued positive rd-continuous functions defined on \(\mathbb{T}\) . Our results improve and extend some results established by Saker (J. Comput. Appl. Math. 177:375–387, 2005) but also unify the oscillation of the second order nonlinear delay differential equation and the second order nonlinear delay difference equation.
